    zx2 s/r gear swap and ratios, questions

    So I remember reading somewhere about the s/r having some different gearing and/or stronger gear, also I know one of the shift forks is re-designed.
    I found a s/r at the yards but want to know if it's worth buying for anything?

    I've been searching some keywords but cant find the same info I had seen before. Thanks.

            haha I think his phone did an auto correct or something. It does have quite a bit of goodies on it, I also thought it had a short shifter too. Not to mention the Borla axle back exhaust.
